Schonenberg Estate suburb
Living in a town like Somerset West would be anybody’s dream. This town is so beautiful and offers such a good lifestyle it entices many people to relocate. This town’s ‘village’ atmosphere is very appealing.
To make it even more appealing there is now a village within a village. Schonenberg Estate looks and feels like a separate little village within the Somerset West area.
The homes are made up of houses and flats of different dimensions. However, Schonenberg Estate retains its unique charm because the properties are built in the Cape vernacular style. This means the homes are all new but have a period look. There are plenty of white washed walls, green roofs and open porches. This look was specially chosen for Schonenberg Estate because it goes with both the natural surroundings and history of the Somerset West area.
Schonenberg Estate is made up of seven hundred units all regarded as up market. There a few plots available. It is well placed within a natural basin surrounded by this area’s magnificent Helderberg Mountains. Schonenberg Estate can be seen close to the luxury Lord Charles Somerset Hotel and quaint Waterstone Village Shopping Centre.
Not only is the exact location of Schonenberg Estate convenient but it also has direct access onto the main highways. In ten minutes you get to the nearby town of Stellenbosch. In twenty minutes you get to Cape Town International Airport and thirty minutes gets you into the centre of Cape Town. This makes it very easy to commute between Schonenberg Estate and the city. Many working residents living in the Somerset West area make use of the excellent city express bus from Monday to Friday.
No matter where you live, nowadays, everybody is concerned about security. Fortunately, Schonenberg Estate offers a high level of security. This is a gated community surrounded by an electric fence and has an infrared beam system connected to a fitted control room in a guardhouse staffed twenty four hours of every day. The Schonenberg Estate security system includes surveillance cameras covering the entire borderline and other key areas.
Another reason the security is so tight at Schonenberg Estate is because it has its very own retirement village. This is another village within a village and adds to the balance of life. Schonenberg Estate truly is a location that is suited to all age groups. The retirement village also has homes made up of comfortable houses and flats.
The needs of retirees and the elderly are taken care of in this section. The Schonenberg Estate retirement village has its own medical facilities that can be used by the broader community. This provides great peace of mind to those who want their aging parents nearby. You can go off to work everyday and know they are safe and secure at all times.

Over weekends it is very easy for kids to keep busy as the Somerset West area has many sports clubs and fields. These offer the usual sports like soccer, tennis, rugby, hockey and netball.
Schonenberg Estate kids also benefit from adventure sports like mountain biking and horse riding. There are lots of trails specifically for biking.

This means you can get the kids to the beaches at either Strand or Gordon’s Bay in minutes. Swimming, paddling, surfing and other water sports is even more pleasurable due to the ocean’s warm water.
The design of Schonenberg Estate is greatly influenced by the natural surroundings. Every effort has been made to ensure the units get the best possible mountain and sea views. The walls are low and there are avenues lined with trees. Water areas are strategically placed for the benefit of aesthetics and birdlife. There are also sufficient open spaces for communal use.
